Teachers lose significant instructional time each day waiting for students to stop talking or being disruptive.

Existing behavior management tools are often manual (e.g., paper charts) or require active monitoring; there is no seamless way to regain attention without stopping instruction.

App Concept

QuietClass

QuietClass is a classroom attention management app that uses a combination of sound detection and visual cues to help teachers reduce disruption without stopping instruction. A subtle dashboard shows noise levels, and a gentle timer or visual countdown helps students self-regulate, allowing teachers to address disruptions non-verbally and minimize lost time.

Key Features

Real-time noise level monitoring with color-coded display (green/yellow/red)
Teacher-controlled 'attention reset' button that triggers a visual countdown on student screens or classroom display
Behavior tracking analytics to identify patterns and times of frequent disruption
Optional integration with smart classroom lights or chimes for non-verbal redirection

Target Users: K-12 teachers in classrooms with frequent disruptions, particularly in public schools and large-class settings (up to 35 students per class).

Revenue Model: $9.99/mo per teacher subscription, with school-wide discounts available ($6.99/mo per teacher for 50+ licenses).
